RE: Passage from Hell to Purgatory with Dante Alighieri | BOOK REVIEW The Inferno of Dante, Part II: Purgatory

in Hive Book Club6 months ago

I really love this masterpiece by Dante, and for you to give a wide opinion about every chapter is actually a great work for this community.

This poem is so important for literature that it's certainly important to talk about it more on social media, there's no other work that can compare to what Dante did.

As you mentioned, I also have my doubts about Beatrice being real or simply a guide for Dante, but at the end the goal is accomplished: she gives him the strength to keep going.

You did a very nice review

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read and comment on my post. Some people I've introduced to the book find it a bit strange and informal. Perhaps because of the way the story is told and presented, through poems and rhymes.
